1.8.1 Back up the appliance after updating it
After updating your appliance to HP OneView version 1.05, remember to create a new backup
file. Backup images restore an appliance whose version exactly matches the backup file. You can
use a version 1.05 backup file to restore an HP OneView 1.05 appliance, but you cannot use a
version 1.0 or version 1.01 backup file to restore an HP OneView 1.05 appliance.
